A recent study suggests situational awareness instruction may be doubly important for novice drivers with dyslexia.

I am in need of help. My child is in 6th grade reading at a 1.3 reading level. I have been told by several of her teachers that they feel like she has dementia when it comes to spelling and word recognition. They have told me with some of her memory issues that she may never read. I need help advocating for her.

My son is six years old and has been having reading difficulties and is starting to reverse his letters and numbers. Dyslexia is a concern of mine and the elementary school in which he attends does not seem to want to help me with testing. Is this something that you do at your facility?

Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, a team of researchers at Yale monitored the brains of both nonimpaired (NI) and dyslexic (DYS) readers, finding that the DYS readers showed divergent connectivity when reading, meaning their brain didn’t regularly make the connection between the visual properties of a word and the semantic properties, or meaning of the word.

My daughter is in 1st grade and is dyslexic. She cannot read very many words at all. We are getting her an IEP and her teacher is excellent. Her teacher is having a hard time getting her to read sentences so she can test for reading comprehension. Do you have any advice on testing for Dyslexia?

A recent study by the University of Leicester suggests that young developing readers have a similar understanding of how letters at the beginning and end of words can help make sense of words, even if there are typos or jumbled letters in the middle of those words.

A study done at Northwestern University found that children who simply wear listening devices in their ear throughout the day show better word comprehension and reading improvement.

In order to alleviate some of the confusion, H. Lee Swanson, Ph.D. analyzed 92 reading intervention studies to identify the teaching methods that seemed most effective for increasing word recognition and reading comprehension skills.

The Power of Morphology

Morphological awareness is the recognition, understanding, and use of word parts that carry significance, but it is often overlooked in the learning process. Learn activities that help integrate morphological awareness for students learning to read and write.

A study conducted at the Stanford University School of Medicine used brain imaging to predict which teenagers with dyslexia would improve their reading skills overtime.
